I had a 5850 (400 MH/s) pointed at my namecoind all night last night and today, and when I came home from work phoenix.exe had [1] accepted result, so I thought I scored a block of fifty namecoins.

When I type namecoind listtransactions however, it lists the 50 as category "orphan"

wat do ?

Congrats, you got your first invalid block.

Harsh.

YOu need to measure the whole duration. WIth your rate 1760Mhash/s, you're supposed to get one block every 16 hours. So far 3 days since the beginning of this namecoin party, so I guess you should get about 4.5 blocks

Is it very bad luck to get 1 block in less than 2 hours and then 2 orhpan ones for the next 12 hours? I mean 2 orphan, come on......

I didn't change the default askrate with phoenix. Same parameters (BFI_INT & VECTOR) as the one I used in deepbit.

I found 1 block in about 10 hours with one 5830 (while I was sleeping). And in the morning, as soon as I noticed that, I immediately switched that card to pool mining.

Do you think I should set askrate manually to 10?

Or any other changes for the phoenix parameters?

I didn't see the error though (with phoenix miner).

What error?

Well, I read it again and they're not errors. Just some verbose info I don't have with my non-verbose phoenix miner.

yes, 0 accepted/0 rejected will become 1 accepted/0 rejected when you find a block. I didn't see the error though (with phoenix miner).

[440.06 Mhash/sec] [0 Accepted] [0 Rejected] [RPC]

Am I mining properly?

Will this ([0 Accepted] [0 Rejected]) only increase when I find a block?
Is Result didn't meet full difficulty, not sending to be expected from Solo Mining?
